Future Data Engineers become active members of existing teams building data science products, acquiring specific responsibilities, goals and timelines which are interdependent with the goals and timelines of the teams they are embedded in. Upon completing the internship, future Data Engineers will have gained experience in real-world projects in a typical data science environment, using state of the art data engineering tools, and broad exposure to the media industry.
